Hey all, just wondering how much time it adds to processing if you engrave it? I'm curious because some posts don't say. I didn't get mine engraved, but I feel like I have a delivery date that seems a bit later than others. I'm in California, ordered on Aug 8th, est delivery Sept 10-17.

The last I had heard is that engraving adds 1-3 days to your processing time. But I just added an iPP with engraving to my bag and it didn't change the delivery date range; it was the same as no engraving.

Also your quoted timeframe seems about right, a month + 2 days for the earliest. The test orders I just did for today 8/28 show 9/30-10/7.

Thanks for letting me know! Hoping it'll deliver before the timeframe since I didn't get it engraved...

I ordered mine at the 3rd of August, ETA 25th to 1st of September. Yesterday it finally changed from "processing" to "preparing to ship".


At around 2PM yesterday it finally shipped, and is supposed to deliver to my home in around 4 hours or so.

Wow...where did yours ship from? I ordered July 31, shipped 2 days ago, and it's still in China. Not supposed to be here for another week.

So I just checked Best Buy's website, they are currently sold out in my town store but say I could have a Pro 11" 128 here by next Friday. What's with these Apple shipping times? I only went through the mothership to get the education discount. I'd cancel but then I'd have to send these sweet AirPod Pros back 😂

Side note: Apple is giving me $75 bucks to trade in an iPad mini 3rd gen. Thing is almost 6 years old and takes an hour to open spotify. I thought that was generous.

I guess you could say I’m getting very antsy about my iPad arrival. Trying to make due on notability with my old “holds no charge” iPad mini. Of course I can’t actually write on it but I’ve been prepping notability for when I do get my IPP.

You are without a doubt in the right thread for feeling antsy about it. 💪

Just ordered a 12.9" iPad Pro with an estimated delivery window of Sept 30-Oct 7. I am hoping that it really doesn't take that long...the wait begins.

The first part of the wait is hard, but once it ships is the WORST, especially the last 2 days. Excruciating! Welcome to the “Waiting for my iPad Pro” class of 2020. We ALL feel your pain, lol. 😊

I appreciated your words of encouragement.:) I guess this is what I get for waiting to get a new iPad. During the brief Covid-19 reopening of the Apple stores around here, I could have ordered and picked up in the store the same day! But alas, I waited too long and the Apple stores closed again and now I find myself in a month long line.

I can only imagine what the iPhone 12 scene will look like in a couple of months.....I will be in that line, too!

Your not antsy alone 🐜
My arrival window starts two days after yours. Got all my accessories and even ordered a lap desk for my recliner, couch, or bed.😆

Shipping buddies! (sorta)

Wow you're going all out! I'm waiting to get my pencil (funds wise) and I'm not engraving so no worries on how fast it'll get here. I will probably order once the IPP ships. I check almost every day to make sure there's either decent shipping time or if I can still go pick it up in-store (it's just sitting in my bag on apples website haha). I'm also waiting on getting a case and screen protector because I still don't know what I want, but I'll definitely get one maximum 2 weeks after I receive it.

Yes, I see you’re in Texas. @DiamondarBoss and myself are in Texas, too. Yeah, all the Apple stores here are closed up tighter than Fort Knox, lol. My sentiments exactly on the new iPhones, we can do it all again and have a reunion.

My XS Max will be 2 years old next month. I’m anxious to see if we’ll get 5G with the new 12’s.
